Speaker: Usman Muhammad

Usman completed his bachelors in computer science from FAST Lahore in 2006. Since then he has been part of the software industry for more than 10 years working for companies like Techlogix, Microsoft, Salesforce and Lyft. Tackling domains such as C++ compilers, large scale search engines, online Ads platform and self-driving cars. Over the years he has gained expertise in fields like search & indexing, online services, distributed systems, machine learning and robotics. 
 
Currently Usman is part of the prediction and motion planning team at Level5 (Lyft's Autonomous Vehicles group). Working on algorithms to predict the future behavior of agents such as cars, pedestrians, cyclists; using a mixture of motion based algorithms and machine learned models using neural networks. In addition to this, he also leads the virtual validation team which uses simulation and data analysis to do large scale validation of the driving behavior.
